I THINK I know how to set a tuning pin..this situation in this environment is getting the best of me. hopefully, the suggestions here will help me. Thanks, fridgid rook >> What's the temparature in sothern Florida, about 50 degrees? I feel SOOOO sorry for you. Here in St. Louis today, the temp got down to -5. And I know that for some of you futher north, that's tanning weather. But it's c c c c old outside. About those snappy pins. There is nothing you can do to leanr how to tune snappy pins other than tune enough snappy pins to get the hang of it. Try to use your whole arms, or even your whole body, to turn the tuning lever. Work at making as small a movement as possible. Happy Holidays, every one. Willem
